“Came in for dinner ordered a combo plate. Was delicious. Very friendly. Great customer service. Ordered water for my drink I was expecting a regular glass of tap water, but was offered a bottle of water free of charge. I'm definitely coming back. I would eat over any food chain. # support small business owners.“

“We had a dinner get together with family about 20 people… the food was great but Alejandra who waited for us was phenomenal. Can you imagine 20 of us, but we never had to ask for another drink, she automatically filled our glasses and she had a smile all the time. She was good in assisting our gluten free family members on what food items was available. We didn’t have to wait long for the food to be served. The service was smooth, she was quick, polite, and patient…she is one of a kind…we all enjoyed our dinner and time with family. Thanks to you Alejandra!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I’ve been craving Mongolian Bbq for a while but haven’t really explored. Saw this place with good ratings and must say, the ratings didn’t lie! It’s a cosy hole in the wall place which you know that means it’s good. Staff are very friendly and attentive, explaining the menu and how this roll. I got the all you can eat with my boyfriend, it was so much food! I will absolutely come again and I will highly recommend this place to friends!“

“Amazing food and service recently moved to la habra and I found my permanent spot when I’m craving Chinese, everything is so tasty.

She deserves all the business and blessings in the world she’s truly just the sweetest 🥹 places like this deserve business people like this are very rare to find they are not stingy with their food at all. So if you’re thinking about coming here do it you’ll find a new family favorite. ❤️“

“I really love Panda Inn in La Palma, California for dinner forever!! ☺️☺️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🥡🥢“

“Super fast and friendly service. It's always so yummy eating at this place with my two girls and their cousins. Super easy access to the restaurant! Noodles and their mandu are so good - actually all their menu items are so delicious! Can't wait until we try again next time.“

“Definitely coming back. It's hard to find a spot that makes good sizzling rice soup. This place had a really good broth and the soup was nice and hot (not spicy). Some place will serve you a warm to lukewarm soup, or have a bland broth. This was good. The salt & pepper shrimp was amazing. The chow fun was really good. There are actual flavor in their chow fun noodles. We also ordered one more thing that tasted like orange chicken but the flavor was way better. Also, the sweetness of the chicken was not overwhelming or too sweet at all. It was perfect.

After we received our sizzling rice soup, we didn't get the rest of our order until much later. We can tell that they forgot our order. It was understandable since they received 7 huge to-go orders in between our order. I really wanted to give the place five stars for service but that it usually a deal breaker if the food was terrible. Luckily the flavor and aroma saved the meal experience.

Place is definitely old but I like the hole in the wall look. Not the cleanest looking spot but definitely doesn't bother me. I look forward to coming back and trying other menu items.“

“First, they bring out a small bowl of salted, roasted peanuts to snack on while you peruse the menu. The egg drop soup feeds 3-4 people. It’s huge. The dinner portions are massive. The service was absolutely 5-star and fast! We were encouraged by the fact that most of our fellow diners were Asian, and there was a steady flow of traffic. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. It was a seamless experience.“

“Delicious food . Not a long wait. I will return 🤗“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lee's BBQ & Boba Chinese Food. I was thoroughly impressed! The flavors are absolutely delicious, with each dish prepared perfectly. The meats are tender and flavorful, and the variety of options on the menu made it hard to choose just one. I highly recommend the chicken Chow Mein and the dumpling soup — they were simply outstanding!

It's clear that they take pride in their food and customer experience. Whether you're craving a quick bite or a satisfying meal with friends, this is a perfect place to visit.

Can't wait to return for more amazing food.“

“just ordered food from China Gourmet in Signal Hill, Ca.. upon entering the restaurant a young man greeted me with a hello. He was pleasent and welcoming. He took my order of mushroom chicken, mixed vegetables and rice with a two order combo. I had BBQ pork, half and half and jalapeño chicken, with two drinks. Returned home and started to dive in! WOW IT WAS AMAZING! The pork was cooked just right, the chicken was extremely delicious and chow mein was actual chow mein and not Top Ramen noodles substitute. my friend who ordered the mushroom chicken and vegetables couldn't stop eating. I've been to numerous fast Chinese food places and none of them have been as good as this place with the quality of food and the amount given. the price was moderate in today's society of price gouging it was $27 and well worth it. if you enjoy Chinese food and really want to get a bang for your buck as well as and enjoyment of flavors in your mouth go to China Gourmet!“

“I was trying to find an old restaurant I used to visit for great Jjajangmyeon, and although this wasn’t the exact place I remembered, I was very satisfied.
They served a small egg soup as a welcome dish — warm, light, and comforting on an empty stomach.
During lunch time, I tried the stir-fried vegetables, which were fresh and perfectly seasoned without being too salty.
I also liked that they offered small-size bowls of Jjajangmyeon — just right for a light meal.
Everything tasted great, and I definitely recommend visiting this place!“

“Been coming here since the 90s when my mom would bring us as kids. We moved a few times and still make the drive. The owner and staff are very friendly and the food is sooooo good. I will post pics next time I go. I always forget and we all dig in. Its my husband's and kids favorite spot too. We come here for birthdays and just because and make the 1 hr 30 minute (thats with no traffic) drive . I love that this is now a tradition for my lil family.
We always get the wor wonton house special soup, shrimp fried rice, house special chow main. Manderine chicken and beef and broccoli . I highly recommend“

“I usually take out/delivery and this place is really good. It's a small business so it makes me feel good to support the community. You cannot go wrong with the Chinese food here at all. I also appreciate the variety of Chinese food available here, its not just orange chicken, but they have shrimp, pork, and fish dishes. Even the boba is really good and nice and chewy. Don't skip the boba here either.“

“I had such a great experience at Hong Kong Express Chinese Restaurant! The food is absolutely packed with flavor — I tried the delicious orange chicken, the unique and spicy teriyaki chicken, and the tasty kung pao chicken. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The portions are incredibly generous for the price — they really fill up the to-go boxes, so you definitely get your money’s worth. On top of that, the service was excellent, fast, and very friendly. I will definitely be coming back, often.“

“I visited LV Seafood Restaurant and had a great experience. The service was friendly and attentive from the moment I walked in. I ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp and the Kung Pao Chicken—both dishes were excellent.

The Honey Walnut Shrimp was creamy, sweet, and perfectly crisp, with a good amount of shrimp. The Kung Pao Chicken had great flavor and just the right amount of heat. Portions were generous, and everything came out fresh and hot.
The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, making it a great spot for a good meal. I’d definitely come back to try more dishes and recommend this place to anyone who enjoys flavorful Chinese cuisine.“

“Excellent service and presentation from the servers to the owners acting as MC. Very organized. I'm impressed. I would recommend to do your event here.“

“valuable, set lunch very good. especially Chai Siu Fired rice, homemade Chao Siu is really taste good.“

“I've been here so many times I forgot to count. Great service, tasty and fresh food, what else could you ask for? This place is 5 Stars all around I would give it six if I could. Definitely recommended. I recommend the House Chow Mein, Broccoli and Beef and the Kung Pao Chicken/Beef/Shrimp or all 3! Yes all 3! Ask about it.

Enjoy, you can thank me later.“

“My favorite place to go whenever I'm craving hot pot nowadays! I'm not able to handle spice so I've only tried their Tomato broth, Chicken broth, and the extra mild version of the Beef Bone broth. But all 3 broths are delicious; the Tomato is sweet & tart without being too much of either, and both the Chicken and the Beef Bone are deeply flavorful without being either too watery & bland, nor too fatty & heavy. The selection of ingredients is nice as well, a good variety of tasty fish/meat balls, veggies, tofu's, and a surprisingly numerous offering of different proteins, including seafood, as well as various starches. Service has been pretty good thus far, every time I've been there, there were wait staff regularly coming by to check for water refills and napkins etc. I had to take a star off for Atmosphere though; there basically isn't any. But as long as the food stays as good as it is now, i could care less about the atmosphere to be honest.=P“

“Great service and food. Very reasonably priced as well. I've only been here a handful of times, but it's been enjoyable each time. The service is quick and amiable, and the food is well made and delicious (from what I've tried at least). My friend loves the egg flower soup and broccoli beef. I enjoy the orange chicken as well as some of the sides. Definitely recommend visiting, and there's also some good choices for dessert nearby.“

“The waitress was very friendly and helpful with selecting our dishes. We had chicken chow mein and shrimp chow mein and a side of spring rolls. The food was very flavorful and brought to the table nice and hot. I would definitely come back again.“

“Dear Northern Cafe Long Beach, we are in love with your place and your service! Paulina is super helpful with her recommendations and is a delight to be around! She is this 5 star review! We ordered tons of food and are on our way home now to try, but already it smells AMAZING! Will be back to update this review once we've had a good taste of this great smelling food!“

“Such great food and the staff is amazing! Love this place brings back such great memories!“

“Tasty Goody in Norwalk is hands down the best Chinese food place this side of the Mississippi. I go there whenever I want some ? orange chicken, and it never disappoints. The portions are huge, and the prices are great for how much food you get. The orange chicken has the perfect amount of crunch and sauce, and the noodles are always fresh. I’ve tried a lot of places, but nothing really compares to Tasty Goody. Plus, the people there are super nice and quick with your order. Definitely my go-to spot for Chinese food.“

“We were in from out of town celebrating my wife’s birthday and Billy was our server.

Billy was fantastic, the drinks were never empty the food order was correct and Billy was a delight every time we spoke

He made our night! Thank you Billy!!!!!“

“I love everything about Chowking . From Siopao, mami, wanton soup and desserts and drinks. Halo halo, buchi buchi, taho, and so much more. Feels like you’re in pinas.👍🥰“

“You know why you're here. This is the place you go to for big portions at a great deal. Everything is super tasty and the ladies helping are all super friendly. I share a combo with my fiance and we always have leftovers. Cheaper than eating fast food and bigger portions“

“The first time I went here I would give it 5 stars. I went between lunch and dinner so it was quiet and calm. The food and service was amazing. The fooooodddd yum yum yum. However in my later visits the food has not been so amazing. Still good but not super super delicious.
If you go when it's busy, it can be chaotic in there. But it's cuz it's a small place and it's popular.
The staff is always friendly and attentive though.“

“It funny, the name made us think it was like a yoshinoya. But it is not. Have been here several times since writing this. Wonderful sit down and dine spot for good Chinese food. Our go to is the orange chicken and mongolian beef. We also enjoy the hot and sour soup and their chicken fried rice. The staff is very attentive and kind. I also like the calm piano music they play as well. This has become our chinese food spot. I Highly reccomend it.“

“Good Chinese food with family or friends“

“This is one of my favorite restaurants, I've been going there for years.The food is just super, from the appetizers to the main dishes nothing has ever disappointed. When I walk through the door they know what I want to start off with and will occasionally recommend a new dish.“

“Yummy yummy food!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“A Culinary Gem in the Heart of Westminster - BAOS HOG Review Stepping into BAOS HOG, you're immediately welcomed by a fusion of contemporary decor and inviting ambiance. This small, yet noteworthy establishment stands out in Westminster for its innovative approach to bao buns, often known as "baos." Each bao is a masterpiece, with the Hog special possibly being the star of the show. The pork is succulent and flavorful, indicative of the care in preparation. Accompanied by crisp, fresh vegetables and a secret sauce that adds an unexpected but delightful kick, it's a harmonious blend of textures and tastes. Beyond the baos, the menu is an eclectic mix, suggesting influences from various cuisines, a bold move that seems to pay off. The drinks selection complements the food, with both traditional options and more unique offerings, indicating that the proprietors are aficionados seeking to provide a full culinary experience. Service is efficient and warm.“

“My spot for years. Great place, good food, excellent service. The party trays are a good deal, and they will make it on the spot with no more than 15 minutes of wait time. I always get orange chicken, beef, broccoli, chow mein, and fried rice. Steam rice and teriyaki chicken, sweet and sour pork, and green beans are also very tasty.“

“First visit with a friend who has been there multiple times and is one of her favorites. Ordered Walnut Shrimp, MaPo Tofu, Sautéed Eggplant, "A" Vegetable, Hot Chili Pepper Whole Fish. All dishes were delicious. My only disappointment was the amount of fish ratio to the price. Extensive menu and looking forward to returning to try other dishes.“

“was fresh & flavorful great service“

“My name is Anne-Marie Buynak, Maria Buynak's daughter. I will be leaving reviews as of Maria's passing in July 2025. If you knew her, please keep her in your memories and hearts and I will do the same. Excellent service as always. Food is always delicious. Usually quiet except when busy with big parties, then it is very noisy.“

“Delicious food! What I appreciated most is that they were diligent in addressing a gluten allergy in my family. In addition to having allergies checkable on the ordering website, they also called me to ensure I knew that some of the items we ordered were not gluten free.

It made us feel very very safe in ordering with a good allergy!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Northern Cafe in Cerritos, and it’s quickly become a new favorite! The food was absolutely delicious—flavorful, authentic, and well-prepared. The portion sizes were huge, perfect for a family meal, and everything we ordered was spot-on. The service was also top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff that made the experience even better. Highly recommend this place if you're in the area and looking for great Chinese food. Definitely coming back!“

“love their shrimp fried rice“

“Delicious vegetarian food at good prices. High backed private booths and great service.“

“I love this little restaurant it was actually my 1st time going yesterday evening* they were gonna close in like 30 minutes but they cooked my food fresh everything was delicious 😋 steamed dumplings sooooo good* combination chow mien delicious as well*“

“First timer. Recently moved to the area and was looking for a nice Chinese food spot. Decided to try and they did not disappoint. The female worker was so accommodating. It was 30 min before closing and they cooked up our food fresh. The orange chicken was on point. Besides the food we also tried the Matcha Green Tea and Thai tea Boba so delish. Will be returning soon. Definitely recommend.“

“Muy buena la comida 🥘y el servicio“

“This place has been around for 40 years plus. Old seafood tanks. Taped up wallboards. Liquor bottles by the registers. Okay portions. Lunch specials are good deals. Not charged extra for rice or tea. Quick service. Own parking lot is closed off to other lots.“

“Flavourful foods! Menus have more varieties now.. 👍🏽“

“Soto Band LOVES Kung Pao Bowl“

“If you like duck this is the place for you! Very delicious! There chow fun not so much, it doesn’t taste like anything?! I really hate that I bought two plates. There filet mignon was good. The crispy duck (Peking) you have to call a day ahead, it’s made to order.“

“The food here is SO good. But, they have messed up my order twice now with giving me my sides and they don’t give me all that I order. I ordered chow main, fried rice, and egg rolls and none of it was received. I called them and let them know I’m disabled and can’t come in to return my food and they told me to leave a note in my order to prevent this from happening again. Food is delicious so I keep coming back and I’m grateful they exist.

Vegetarian options: Amazing vegetarian and vegan selection. I get kung pao tofu, fried rice, chow main, hot and sour soup, and egg rolls are all a must!!!“
